oh wow ,INTERESTING ,WHEN i INSTALLED A NEW GAS PUMP, THE VACUMB LINES WERE IN DISSARAY AND disconnected ,I WONDER IF IVE PUT THEM TOGETHER OUT OF ORDER .,you mentioned that the gas pump vacumb is in SERIES between the carb and the wiper motor ,so the vacumb line which comes from the carb is the sourse or first , then hooks to the gas pump vacumb on the front ,and then the vacumb goes to the wiper motor and terminates there?does the vacumb get "boosted" at the gas pump?

it was mentioned that the only adjustment that the 52 needed to the throttle linkage was the cross link height as measured off the height of the top of the head.. I tried this with the 2 2/3 " height and a scale but the exhaust manifold is where the rod is over ,not he head .shall I measure the height of the short bent part where it wouldhave lined up with the hole on the special tool to where it would be over the head by trying to get a horizontal line thats level with a carperters level or something , and then measuring its height ,I think iLL need 3 hands
,also the excellent but complicatedservice bullitin proceedure went into adjustment of the throtle lever on the side of the ultramatic transmission ,this still have to be adjusted on the 52,no?
it has to be loosened after unhooking the throttle lever rotated back on the shaft somehow untill it begin to compress a spring and then retightened and rehooked up.
